Yep, to be fair the grass at deloitte wasn’t so much grass as scorched earth after a carpet bombing

Left for Accenture. It's 80% the same. I just got more money for it now. So definitely happy for the move.

Yup. Even better is now I have Deloitte as a vendor. Haha. My former teammates legit work on my projects. But yeah, it is. I honestly do not know what to do with my weekends, so I started more volunteering at our local hospital. I no longer live paycheck to paycheck cos I got 50% more. The best part is I do not have to do all those crap BS like time-sheet. I hated that Advisory weekly thing to confirm you are on a project.

All this entire thread is depressing. Seems like Deloitte truly takes a toll on everyone. One thing remains, if you can join Deloitte, you certainly can join other prestigious places too.

Orders of magnitude improvement in WLB, material increase in pay, measurable decrease in busy-work, and lesser grey hair. I do miss the office friendship and hanging out with work colleagues on Fridays though.

What are your thoughts about having to take an iq/personality assessment tests? It seems so outdated to me. I don’t think it predicts how you will truly perform at a job. I took a test like this for a startup once and they were concerned about my ability to speak up or behave in social settings. This was completely false. I present, interview clients, demo products, and facilitate meetings for a living. So what if I go home and shut down after work? I’m exhausted from speaking all day!

Should I try and switch into a more applicable practice such as M&A or operations? Will I be able to break into corporate strategy without any past experience in that industry? I want to avoid getting pigeonholed into FS, but with COVID, don’t want to leave.
